Chapter 224: Unintentional Eavesdropping
Hearing this, the cold sweat on Chun Tao's forehead slid down, and a touch of gloom appeared on his face, and then he glared at Wei Xueying angrily.
Chun Tao said pleadingly: "What do you want me to do?" She didn't want to die, but she didn't want to betray the queen, she was very entangled and worried now.
Seeing this, Chu Ling sighed, his good temperament was completely lost, and he directly stepped forward to knock Chun Tao unconscious.
"What do you do?" Wei Xueying stared at Chu Ling in amazement, and hurriedly stood in front of Chun Tao, who had already fainted, guarding Chun Tao, for fear that Chu Ling would be ruthless.
"Kill her. If you let her go now, you might be bitten back by her. Chu Ling's expression showed cruelty, and he looked at Chun Tao's eyes as a dead person.
"No, it can't, she overheard it." Wei Xueying protected Chun Tao and stopped Chu Ling's thoughts. Chun Tao heard it, but it was impossible to solve Chun Tao's life.
"Wei Xueying, you have become merciful." Chu Ling suddenly glared at Wei Xueying angrily, and looked at Wei Xueying with slightly narrowed eyes.
Wei Xueying yelled at Chu Ling angrily: "It's not that I'm merciful, I said that the people I know, as long as they have been good to me, I won't allow others to touch them at all, even if they want, they have to be done by me." If anyone wants to use their brains against me, I want them to go to eighteen levels of hell, and this is me, a selfish me. I'm not like you, I've always been cold-blooded and ruthless. ”
Chu Ling was scolded by Wei Xueying and lowered his head, a little stunned, and he didn't dare to say a word anymore.
The atmosphere in the air instantly fell to a freezing point, and no one spoke for a while.
After Chu Ling was silent for a while, Yun said lightly: "I'll leave first, you can handle her affairs!" I hope you don't regret it. ”
Wei Xueying's heart moved, and she quietly looked at Chu Ling, and Chu Ling's figure had disappeared.
Wei Xueying sighed helplessly, and snorted bitterly: "The Tao is not the same. "There are some things that are always different between her and him.
When Chun Tao woke up, Wei Xueying was staring at her with her hands in her condescending arms.
Chun Tao twisted her body, but found that she was tied, she looked at Wei Xueying, and asked with a pale face, "Xiaoxue, what do you want?" Who are you? She felt that Wei Xueying's identity was not simple.
Wei Xueying shook her head apologetically, smiled and comforted: "Sister Chuntao, I am Xiaoxue!" You're afraid you're dazzled. ”
Chun Tao's face became solemn, and she tried hard to suppress the helplessness in her heart: "Since I have heard the conversation between you and Lord Ling, then you had better kill me." She is self-aware, and when she hears something she shouldn't hear, Wei Xueying won't let her go.
Wei Xueying raised her eyebrows, and said with a bad face: "Sister Chuntao, I said you didn't want to die, so don't say these things in duplicity." Moreover, you have already eaten my poison, and if you do not cooperate with me, death is inevitable. After a pause, she continued:
"Moreover, you know the secret between me and Prince Ling, even if you go to the queen to tell the queen about this matter and get the queen's blessing, but you know so much, the queen will not let you go, and the queen will definitely not believe you because of your words as a palace maid. I think that the wise Lord Ling will give you a crime and let you die without a place to bury. ”
Chun Tao's pretty face immediately sank, and she glared at Wei Xueying angrily, thinking about it carefully, what Wei Xueying said was also true.
"Therefore, the best thing to do is to act as if you didn't hear it, didn't see it, didn't happen, and if you want to live, you just play stupid." Wei Xueying looked at Chun Tao seriously, she really wanted to spare Chun Tao's life, but she also had to make sure that Chun Tao would not talk nonsense before she let Chun Tao go, otherwise she would not talk about it.
Chun Tao was moved, took a breath gently, nodded, and agreed with Wei Xueying's statement, she kept it a secret for the time being, and did not say anything about it.
Wei Xueying walked to Chun Tao with satisfaction and went to untie Chun Tao.
"Sister Chun Tao, if I hear half of this from the mouths of others, or if I have any misfortune, your life will not be saved, because what I ate with you last night was poison, and I need to take an antidote, do you understand?" Wei Xueying warned Chun Tao not to play tricks.
Chun Tao's heart darkened, and she stared at Wei Xueying and hesitated for a while before she spoke, "Okay." ”
"Then when are you going to give me the antidote?" Chun Tao asked anxiously, she really didn't want to die, she was just a palace maid, and it was almost enough to save her life.
"I'll give it to you, let's go! We went out, and the queen got up at this point. Wei Xueying said indifferently at Chun Tao, and then walked out of the room.
She guessed correctly, Chun Tao really wanted to live, when Chun Tao was found last night, she saw the fear in Chun Tao's eyes, and those who were afraid wanted to live.
Chun Tao got up and moved her body, following Wei Xueying's body.
Wei Xueying had just waited for the queen to get up, and the queen asked, "What time is today?" ”
Wei Xueying said softly: "Back to the queen mother, today is the fifteenth." ”
The queen's eyes darkened, but a satisfied smile appeared on her face. Fifteen... Haha, what a day! The time she had been waiting for had finally come.
After Wei Xueying finished dressing up for the queen, Chu Yi walked in in and said with an anxious face: "Queen Mother, it's not good, some ministers in the court have approached, saying that they want to see their father, and suspect that the queen mother also has the dislike of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and ask the emperor to order the raid of your palace." ”
The queen was stunned for a while, got up and stood up, and glared at Chu Yi in astonishment: "Are they going to rebel?" She also looked a little panicked, not expecting such a thing to happen.
"I don't know who they heard about their father being poisoned and placed under house arrest by you, the prince's time is short, and you want to control the power of the court, so they are all in chaos, and they are approaching the palace and saying that they want to see their father and ask you to give an explanation. Now they are approaching here, and they have also brought their guards and made up their minds to see their father. Chu Yi said in a calm voice as much as possible, but his expression was ugly.
Such rumors have been going on since yesterday, but he has been hiding them and not telling the queen, so he didn't expect the matter to be serious today.
"Queen Mother, my father really poisoned you and put him under house arrest, and you won't let you see it?" Chu Yi's eyes flashed with a strange light, and his eyes stared at the queen tightly, wanting to know the truth or falsehood.
It's true that his time is running out, but his father is his father, how can his mother bear it?
"A bunch of nonsense, these gossips must have been started by Chu Ling, he wants to cause chaos in the DPRK and China, take the opportunity to make trouble, and expose the uprising." The queen raised her voice and roared angrily, denying Chu Yi's inquiry.
Chu Yi stiffened his head and whispered: "Queen Mother, is it true that my father is not under house arrest by you?" His eyes were full of disbelief, after his father fell ill, he rarely saw it, and he didn't think about it at that level before, because he still believed in his mother, and now he had to think so.
The corners of the queen's mouth curved slightly, and a cold smile bloomed: "It's a little early for you to ask this now, the queen mother has always had a plan to do things." You just have to remember that all this is for your good and the good of the Wei family. ”
